The discussion about biofuel potential of corn seems to be wholly missing the point. It would be a mistake to assume that because as much energy must be used in producing the corn as it can provide on consumption, it is not reducing the carbon footprint associated with fuel sources. An analysis of the energy corn can provide on combustion would be more appropriate for a start, followed by some sort of analysis as to the ratio of carbon dioxide consumed in photosynthesis by the corn, to that produced over its life-cycle as an energy source.
